[LAU] alsa-jack plugin... some patches.

hi...

i have looked into the alsa-jack plugin. i think i fixed the main
problem which made it cause xruns.

git://hochstrom.endofinternet.org/alsa-plugins.git

its working quite reliably here now.
with the small fix on the xrun front. i looked at the basic usability.

i removed the pid and weird stuff from jack client name. and added an
option to configure the client name.

------------------------------------------------------------------
pcm.jack {
        @args [ NAME ]
        @args.NAME {
                type string
                default "alsa-jack"
        }
        type plug
        slave {
                pcm {
                         type jack
                         client_name $NAME
                         playback_ports {
                                 0 alsa_pcm:playback_1
                                 1 alsa_pcm:playback_2
                         }
                         capture_ports {
                                 0 alsa_pcm:capture_1
                                 1 alsa_pcm:capture_2
                         }

                 }
        }
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------

this makes jack:client_name devices available.

the noauto git branch also contains a more flexible not autoconnecting
version. use with your favourite patchbay.

------------------------------------------------------------------
pcm.jacknoauto {
        @args [ NAME ]
        @args.NAME {
                type string
                default "alsa-jack"
        }
        type plug
        slave {
                pcm {
                         type jack
                         client_name $NAME
                 }
        }
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------

mplayers alsa backend works fine with this.
after a bit of mucking around, i built a 32bit version here on my 64bit
machine and had 32bit skype connected to my 64bit jackd.

would be nice if this could get some testing with jack2 and stuff.
